Refurbished Remington Balder Deluxe Pro Razor

I've been thinning up top and decided to take the plunge and be a bald guy. I previously ordered the FlexSeries Freebird. It was great, my first experience went well. But after using it a couple weeks, it was turning on and off all by itself so I had to send it back. Enter the Remington Balder Deluxe. I noticed right away this thing is a little more hefty, and it chews through hair a lot more smoothly. You can just tell by how the motors spin up, there is an audible difference between the two razors. I would liken it to a mower; some mowers you can plow through tall grass and the motor will bog down, other mowers blast right through it with hardly a pitch change to the motor. This is the comparison I would make between the Balder Deluxe and the Freebird. I don't get the razor bumps on the back of my head like I did with the Freebird. And with the extra gear (the 2nd button that turns the motors faster) I can get the job done pretty quickly. For reference, I shave about every other day and I do it in the shower with a Cremo shaving lotion. I have blond hair that has a regular thickness to it. I'm only balding a little on top in the back. So I don't have super thick wiry hair or anything. Now, as far as packaging and presentation goes, the Freebird wins hands down. Really cool box and instructions, really nice case. A+ on marketing. But if the device doesn't last, all of the fancy packaging is for nothing. The Balder Deluxe came with a weak looking case and no other accessories, but it gets the job done.
